Tolami Benson, the girlfriend of Arsenal star Bukayo Saka, has taken to social media to clarify her religious beliefs amidst rumors and speculation.

In her clarification, Benson stated on Instagram that she was observing Lent, a period of spiritual reflection and preparation in the Christian tradition leading up to Easter.

She wished blessings to those observing Ramadan, clarifying that her fasting was a personal choice for her own growth.

Lent, traditionally observed by various Christian denominations including Catholics, Lutherans, Anglicans, and Orthodox Christians, begins on Ash Wednesday and culminates in Easter Sunday.

In contrast, Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, marked by fasting, prayer, reflection, and community for Muslims worldwide.

Tolami Benson, like her partner Bukayo Saka is of Nigerian descent and was born into a family with Afro-British roots.

While details about her parents remain undisclosed, she is believed to have connections to Coco Benson, a Swiss-Nigerian singer-songwriter married to renowned record producer Shizzi.

Bukayo Saka, also of Nigerian heritage, has been in a relationship with Tolami Benson since 2022. Despite not following each other on social media, Benson has shown unwavering support for Saka, frequently attending matches and cheering on the England star from the stands.

She has garnered attention from other Arsenal WAGs and remains a prominent figure in the football community with healthy social media following due to her relationship with Bukayo Saka.
